Berlin Losing Public Works Director To Fruitland

BERLIN — After almost six years as director of Public Works, Mike Gibbons will be leaving the town of Berlin for a similar position in a larger city.

His tenure has seen huge leaps in the department’s efficiency, according to town leadership, and his impact on Public Works has been great enough to spark a change to what Berlin is looking for in a department head.

“Mike’s made some real and measurable improvements in the Public Works Department,” said Mayor Gee Williams, “and by doing so has re-defined some of the duties that he is in charge of. He’s led by example. So the first thing we’re doing is reviewing the job description to make sure that it includes all of the things that the Public Works Department director does now.”
